MUSICIANS and entertainers are invited to sign up to perform during Kingston’s major festival season.
“Our annual festivals are a great way to discover some fantastic local talent and give performers an opportunity to take centre stage,” the mayor Cr Geoff Gledhill said.
“While our main stages feature well-known established artists, our smaller stages and Jam Café acoustic stage are the perfect chance to give up-and-coming performers their big break.
“We’d also like to hear from local community and cultural groups who may have a great performance to showcase as part of the festival programs.”
The annual season of festivals features Carols by Kingston in December, Globe to Globe Festival in January, Mordialloc Food, Wine and Music Festival in March and the Harvest Festival in May.
Cr Gledhill said applications were also open for businesses to operate food, beverage or market stalls at one or all of the festivals. “Each year our major festivals attract tens of thousands from the local community and right across Melbourne,” Cr Gledhill said.
“It’s a great chance for local businesses to showcase their products to a hungry crowd.”
